| Remarks | Hello, This morning, approximately 5:07 AM, off to the right of the Washington pier in Marina del Rey. There was what resembled a very large shooting star, big ball of red fire trailing into orange, and then a dissipating yellow trail. A truly wonderfully beautiful site. I'm not exactly sure what it was. Or if anybody else saw it. I was trying to do some internet scrolling and came across your information. Any information would be appreciated. Also, maybe this will also help or collaborate with your log. Thanks, Paul J. Alessi |
